The Knight, Charles 1791-1873 creator text utu 2025 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "The Penny Magazine of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge" is an illustrated weekly magazine published from 1832 to 1845. Created for Britain's working class and sold for just one penny, it reached 200,000 readers in its first year through affordable pricing and striking wood-engravings. The magazine offered non-radical educational content and extensive illustrations to appeal to an often illiterate audience. Despite early success, its dry presentation and rising production costs eventually undermined its popularity, forcing price increases that alienated its intended readers.
